ATLANTA - How Voluntary Benefits Can Drive an Effective Employee Engagement Strategy

Join us on September 18th for this informational program.

Come at 11:30 am for registration, networking and lunch
Program starts at 12:00 noon.

Voluntary Benefits can sometimes be a headache for a corporate benefits department; but if structured appropriately, a benefits team can be set up to reach, teach and engage employees. Voluntary benefits provide access to care and coverage that may not otherwise be available to today's employees who are in all  seasons of their careers, from pet insurance to long-term care coverage.
